I would love if auction countdowns started a bit earlier (and unfortunately East Coast folks are disadvantaged), but the late start is somewhat part of the "fun" in collecting.

Ruining my sleep is a lot more appealing than having to time my extended bidding on a Sunday afternoon when company is over.
LOL, yes I always get that look as a 55 year old adult when I tell people I collect baseball cards. It is a similar look I give people that tell me they believe in psychics or bigfoot.
